“The hotel's central location puts you steps from Kemi's attractions, and inside, the Art Deco restaurant hints at a rich history. I noticed the warmth of the staff and the unique saunas available for private bookings, and I think the dedication to local cuisine, as a member of Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, is a strong point. While some may find the building shows its age, I believe the hotel balances convenience with Kemi's local charm.”
